Fashion is constantly evolving. And so is your style. Therefore, regularly renewing the contents of your wardrobe is essential to benefit from fashionable outfits every day. How to achieve this? Discover all our tips for updating your wardrobe in 2024.
Find inspiration and determine your style
Before buying any clothes, you need to define your style. To do this, find sources of inspiration in magazines, on the catwalks of fashion shows or social networks like Pinterest. The goal is to update yourself on the latest trends and identify those that you like and suit you. Otherwise, you can also find your inspiration in ready-to-wear stores that are always on the lookout for the latest fashions.
This is the case, for example, of the Gap clothing store, which offers items for all ages. You can preview them in a few clicks online or go to physical stores to try them on. Start with basic, essential pieces in your wardrobe, such as a T-shirt, jeans, a classic shirt, a suit, etc. Then, add strong pieces according to your tastes to define your style.
Sort
Once you know what you want for your new wardrobe, it’s time to sort through your old one. Simply set aside what you no longer wear or what you no longer want to wear.
Keep the basic, classic and timeless clothes that remain essential at all times. By making space in your closet, you are even more informed about how you want to fill it again.
Proceed to purchases
Now, it’s time to shop. With your style and the latest trends in mind, and having cleaned out your closet, you’re all set for this final step. But to avoid getting lost in your goal, it’s recommended to make a list. This contains your shopping wishes categorized. First, list tops, bottoms, then shoes and other accessories.
Next, list everything in order of priority. Start with the basics, then move on to the more specific pieces. Finish with the accessories. Make sure you have harmony and coherence in your purchases to be able to put together the outfits of your dreams. Think about the choice of colors. Also, favor quality materials to enjoy each piece for a long time. Finally, do not neglect the purchase of accessories that can make all the difference in your looks (shoes, bags, jewelry, glasses, scarves, etc.)
Tidy up and organize
Once you’re home, it’s time to put away your purchases. This step is crucial to easily find your outfits on a daily basis. Everyone has their way of organizing clothes and fashion accessories.
You can organize by color, by type, or by outfit. Using hangers is a great help to have a better overview of your clothes. For accessories, adopt a dedicated display or set up a drawer for this purpose.
